A Taste of History S06 E04 Fort Mifflin's River War

Fight battles beyond land, on a River War - After the British invaded Philadelphia, Washington sent soldiers to Fort Mifflin and Fort Mercer to delay supply ship and give the Continental Army time to escape to Valley Forge. We visit the forts on opposite sides of the Delaware River near Philadelphia and Chef Staib makes shrimp and rutabaga fricassee, corn fritters, okra fish stew and baked fennel.
